End of Life Dilemmas
Alzheimer's disease gets progressively worse and there is no known cure. After a certain point, should an Alzheimer's patient be kept alive with a feeding tube?

But some doctors say inserting a feeding tube is inhumane, because it can just prolong a vegetative state for years.
